A Hong Kong film "Mai Luren", which was released in Chinese mainland on September 17, 2020, deeply shocked the hearts of countless audiences.
Stills from "The Wheat Road man"
The film, starring Aaron Kwok, is the protagonist of Bo Ge, who was originally a financial tycoon ten years ago, but was imprisoned for bankruptcy and lost public funds, and after his release from prison, he lived by doing odd jobs and borrowing a 24-hour fast food restaurant.
During this period, Bo Ge met many people, including teenagers who ran away from home, Shen Zai.
Shen Zai had been playing games at home before, and later had a conflict with his sister-in-law, ran away from home in a huff, and met Bo Ge in the underground passage.
Bo Ge also met Ah Yan, who helped her mother-in-law pay off her gambling debts, and her daughter and sister.
Ah Yan's husband died in an accident many years ago, the mother-in-law has always thought that Ah Yan killed her son, since the death of her son, she can't accept the fact that she gambled to dispel her worries, and the next ass gambling debt is only repaid by Ah Yan. Ah Yan runs through various jobs introduced by Bo Ge every day, just to pay off the gambling debts owed by her mother-in-law.
Bo Ge changed from a financial tycoon at the beginning to a low-level people now, from the beginning of the tens of thousands of people to the scorn of the people, but he never fell, he did his best to help the people who borrowed in fast food restaurants to find jobs, and when they had a problem, he would also help. But he never dared to go home to meet his mother, and each time he only sneaked a look at the door of the house, and Bo Ge did not want his mother to see him downcast.
At the end of the film, Ah Yan paid off all the gambling debts for her mother-in-law, but she fell down due to overwork and never got up.
Bo Ge was also diagnosed with lung cancer due to persistent heartache, and in the end there was no miracle.
The movie "Mai Luren" tells the difficulties of many different people's different lives, reveals the cruelty of this society, reflects the difficulty of everyone's life, and is a film that is very worth watching.
Finally, I wish you all the best and a smooth life!
